Day 1b Started
The highly anticipated €1,650 Main Event of the 2016 WSOP Circuit festival at the King's Casino in Rozvadov will be heading into its second starting day. The flagship tournament of the festival near the border to Germany is expecting a bumper field to compete for the share of the guaranteed prize pool of €1,000,000.
Day 1a attracted a field of 331 entries including 33 reentries. 129 of them bagged up chips, and it was Francisco Arce who acquired a massive chip lead. The Spaniard amassed 317,800 in chips, with Dejan Divkovic (219,400), Miroslav Forman (208,300), Martin Šlajer (204,900) and Gerhard Brimmers (167,300) rounding out the top 5.
Similar to yesterday's Day 1a, a total of 12 levels of 45 minutes are scheduled and each participant can reenter the competition once. Follow all the action from the densely packed King's Casino throughout the day on PokerNews.com.
